Pressure Cooker Brown Rice

Brown rice is a healthy and delicious side dish, but it also requires a longer cooking time because of its outer fiber coating. When using the MultiPot Pressure Cooker, this quick and easy recipe makes perfectly soft and fluffy brown rice in under 30 minutes. This kitchen hack cuts the cooking time in half! Feel free to improvise and spruce up this basic brown rice side dish with your favorite toppings. Nuts, sesame seeds, sauteed vegetables and fresh herbs all taste great with brown rice.

Brown rice contains natural oils which can eventually go stale. Be sure to check the expiration or "use by" date to ensure freshness. Raw brown rice can be stored for up to six months in an airtight container at room temperature. To extend its shelf life, it can be refrigerated. If storing leftover cooked rice, allow it to cool completely before sealing in an airtight container and refrigerating.

This definitely helps me keep from burning the rice! Great texture and absolutely fuss-free. Hard to beat!

Caroline Ives says:

First time using my multipot and the brown rice came out perfect! I still can’t get over how easy it is to use!!

Jessica Scott says:

The measurements were spot on. Brown rice takes forever to cook, but the pressure cooker cuts the time in half. Love it!

Greg Jones says:

Brown rice usually takes an hour to cook, so I love that I can make it in a pressure cooker in half the time. I found these measurements to be perfect. I tried making brown rice before in the PC but it was dry. The 2 cups rice and 2.5 cups water make perfect rice like it's made in a rice cooker.

Hooray! My rice is always stuck to the sides of the pot, and has even ruined a few with burned bottoms. For some reason me and rice don't mix. This was all soft and fluffy, not hard grains!
